Blows my mind how neglectful parents are when their kids are in swimming pools. Always trying to find someone else to blame rather than their
lazy ass ‘set em up infront of the TV’ parenting style.
Did you read the article?
“Her poor little body was contorted when she was sucked into this hole and pipe 20 feet back. Her body was inside of the motor when she had to be extracted," Nava continued at the time. "They had to break up concrete in order to extract her, cut pipe. It was absolutely horrific.”
I'm a strong swimmer, and even if I was watching closely anything I did would have only put me in danger without helping her.
Say what you want about how long it took the parents to find the kid, maybe they were wrong, but the hotel is 100% responsible here. If it wasn't this kid it would have been someone else, maybe an adult in which case what parents would you blame then?
The worst is how common it is for them to leave their children by a pool and just assume that whatever random adults are around will be watching their kids.
Edit: I didn't say that's what happened here. Clearly, it's not. That doesn't change that what I said above is super common.
